It had not been a good year for apples, and Adam expected to do i pretty well with those that he had J picked from his orchard. When he got back from work in the evening, Eve, his wife, said to him: "Mr Green of Pudley has been in, anddie says he will give you 52 cents a bushels for those five bushels of: cookers." "Will he? said Mr Smith. "No, thank you. I shall do better than that." Sure enough, next day he sold a third of the apples at 60 cents a bushel. But after that his luck went wrong. Days passed and there was no further bid. A quarter of a bushel of apples went bad and had to be thrown away. Adam was very glad to take 48 cents a bushels for the remainder. "You'd have done better to have taken Mr Green's offer," said Eve. "But you never would listen to advice." "Shouldn't have done so well," I growled Adam. Which of them was right??Strand Magazine.

I A WONDERFUL CLIME is that nr south fi a IV Mini vi vvv i n i km v t LITTLE DIFFERERCE BETWEEN ? SUMMER AND WINTER?TRUCK * PRODUCTS UP AND GROWING. * I Editor County Record: ? Now that I have passed through a s portion of one winter and the whole] s of another in South Florida, I pre- s sume that I am in position to say something more about what is prob- ] ably the most wonderful thing connected with the State and that is its climate. Really it is no exaggeration to say that this climate is wonderful. At any rate, I so regard it. The natives do not realize this; those j who have never spent a winter here , can form but little idea of it; but to ( one who has lived elsewhere it is something that cannot be expressed , save in terms that seem to others ] hyperbole. ( So far as temperature is concern- ( ed there is less difference between j the summers and winters here than between the springs and summers in | Eastern South Carolina. Our winters compare with your Aprils and t our summers with your Mays. Three times during this winter there has j been enough frost to be seen early ] -? klif ill uie muniing ujjuu uu iuuio, uuv those were hardly true frosts. They ? appeared immediately after cool t rains,and only such substances as tin and the like were reduced in tern- j perature sufficiently low as to con- j dense the moisture to the frost point, % and then this point was barely reach- \ ed. These frosts did absolutely no j harm. Even sweet potato vines, to- j matoes and other tender plants were ( so far from being killed that they , showed no signs of even the slight- \ est injury. The natives say, however, that this winter has been a lit- j tie warmer than have been some j winters. Wow ana tnen a winter comes that kills these plants when ? in the open, and even ice has been seen; and then again there are win- ? ters without even a sign of frost. s Therefore, I conclude that this win- j ter is about the medium. ^ T* in Jiffinnlt fnr mo fn enofllf nf XV lO UUllVUlb AVI U1V W w* this wintei in the present tense, for, j although it is only the first day of c March, and according to the calendar, winter will reign twenty days i longer, things around me give the impression and more that we are in 1 the midst of spring. The maples bloomed in January; the young grass on the cattle ranges is well up and growing; and two weeks ago the ( woods were full of violets. The . spring crops of beans, cucumbers, 3 tomatoes, corn, watermelons and so ' on, are up and growing and some of { t LI tnese are Diooming. By the way, the warm winter in South Carolina, Virginia and farther North hit the Florida truckers hard. Their crops of cabbages and lettuces would not sell at all, for the reason i i A that in the Central South the weather permitted the growing of these :rops right along, and the difference in transportation charges from the Central South to the North and from here to the North shut Florida out ? / *1 I _ _ xL. i-LI? 3i ine marKet on tne vegetauiea [lamed. You see, it is about as far from here to Charleston, SC, as it is from Charleston to Philadelphia. Therefore, the Florida trucker must leeds raise something that cannot 3e grown in South Carolina or Vlr- ^ ?inia or must raise certain stuff at a ? ;ime when it cannot be grown there. Dtherwise he is not in the game, ftence,those farmers down here who vere wise enough to diversify are :oming out on tomatoes, cucumbers, jelery, pepper, etc, although they lad to plough under their cabbage md lettuce. There has not been a day this win:er that one could not work out- ? loors in comfort, and rarely was a ?at needed. Overcoats are owned >nly by invalids and Northern toursts. There is only one chimney vithin a mile of ue. Some few peo)le have heaters. The others go to ;he kitchens and gather around the ?ok stoves when the mornings are oo cool to be comfortable in other >arts of the house. One fact, however, there is no delying, and this is that the little cold ve have pinches like fury. When a :ool change comes suddenly, and lometimes it comes that way, one vill shiver and almost imagine he :ould freeze, notwithstanding the r' hermometer in front of his nose ihows that the temperature is more han fifty degrees warm. Of course le could not freeze if he tried to. 4 >ut continued warmth during very learly the entire year relaxes the tystem and reduces the clothing to ;uch an extent that even a littlg. ludden cool air comes as a shock.
